Review: A Christmas Countdown, Friend Indeed, A Nickel Buys a Rhyme

I've decided to put these three picture books into one review, due to it's nature of being shot (too short) but plain cute to not be reviewed. All three are beautifully illustrated and truly enjoyable for kids. Recommend reading these to young beginner readers.

Let a friend know they mean the world to you by giving them Mary Engelbreit's newly styled gift book, A Friend Indeed. With a new size of 5 x 5 and Mary's timeless friendship art brought to life in a whole new way, fans will certainly want to pick these up for birthday presents, Christmas presents, or just to say "thank you for being my friend." Mary Engelbreit's friendship-themed gift books are always a huge hit with people everywhere. With the turn of each page, you'll see Mary's art together with a touching verse, bring a fresh spark to an ever-popular theme.

For daytime, all the time, here is a lively introduction to the joys of poetry. These spirited verses will make young children want to laugh, reflect, and dream. Karen Lee Schmidt's whimsical illustrations are the perfect complement to this collection of witty and wise poems to grow on. Full color.

Quote:Mama's in the kitchen bakin' pies. Daddy's on the back porch swattin' flies. Sister's with her boyfriend sighin' sighs. Brother's in the corner tellin' lies.
